Working Group on Research Culture

Research Culture is central to the work of all Science Europe Member Organisations. It links the quality of research to the attractiveness and sustainability of research systems, and requires a broad focus on the behaviours, values, and expectations of these systems.

The members of the Science Europe Working Group on Research Culture meet regularly to discuss and develop activities and actions to contribute to the evolution of research cultures across Europe, fostering sustainable research ecosystems where research and researchers thrive.

The Working Group advises the Science Europe Governing Board and works with the Office to define and implement priority actions towards improving the research ecosystem in Europe and beyond.
